'''First''': work out your '''{{{{{1}}}prov|Credit Support Amount}}'''. This is: <br> | |||

'''Second''': calculate the {{{{{1}}}prov|Value}} of the {{{{{1}}}prov|Transferor}}’s {{{{{1}}}prov|Credit Support Balance}}. This is basically the prevailing value of the {{{{{1}}}prov|Eligible Credit Support}} (and income on it) that the {{{{{1}}}prov|Transferor}} has ponied up at that time. <br> | |||
'''Third''': Deduct the {{{{{1}}}prov|Credit Support Balance}} from the {{{{{1}}}prov|Credit Support Amount}}. | |||
'''Fourth''': If the difference from the sum you did in (3): | |||
:is ''less'' than zero, KEEP QUIET. If you are lucky, the other guy won’t ask ''you'' for a {{{{{1}}}prov|Return Amount}}. | |||
:is ''more'' than zero but ''less'' than the {{{{{1}}}prov|Minimum Transfer Amount}}, also KEEP QUIET. No {{{{{1}}}prov|Delivery Amount}} for you today, because you haven’t exceeded the {{{{{1}}}prov|Minimum Transfer Amount}}, so you are not entitled to one. | |||
:is ''more'' than the {{{{{1}}}prov|Minimum Transfer Amount}} you can demand the ''whole'' amount (I.e., not just the bit over the {{{{{1}}}prov|MTA}}). | |||
===={{{{{1}}}prov|Return Amount}}s==== | |||
===={{ | Basically the converse of a {{{{{1}}}prov|Delivery Amount}}. In this case you deduct the {{{{{1}}}prov|Credit Support Amount}} from the {{{{{1}}}prov|Credit Support Balance}}. | ||

So yesterday you met a [[margin call]] by delivering a [[bond]] the standard [[settlement cycle]] for which means it won’t arrive till the day after tomorrow. How is this “in-flight collateral” treated for the purpose of today’s [[margin call]]? It’s treated as having already been made. However, if your [[counterparty]] fails in the meantime (before the [[bond]] has settled, and assuming ultimately it never does), it would count as an {{isdaprov|Unpaid Amount}} which would factor into your [[Close-out Amount - ISDA Provision|close-out calculation]]. | So yesterday you met a [[margin call]] by delivering a [[bond]] the standard [[settlement cycle]] for which means it won’t arrive till the day after tomorrow.

At first blush this seems an odd result, but the risk is a time value risk associated with the collateral, not a counterparty risk per se.
